Since Chinese eateries (from the humble dumplings stand to the higher-end Mandarin gourmet restos) are quite common back in my hometown in the Philippines, I promptly forgot to take notes on the dishes we ordered. I guess I am spoiled and quite jaded with this type of cuisine within easy reach.
For the dinner, I could only remember the Shrimp Dumplings Szechuan style, and the dessert of lychees and green tea (or it could have been pistachio?) ice cream. Maybe it was the excited talk due to the reunion I had with my classmate who now lives in NJ, but at least I remembered these :-)
Szechuan-style (I like 'em oozingly spicy!) is my favorite of all Chinese styles of cooking, so I was perfectly happy as long as the spice was there and the meat was tender.
Drinks were reasonably quick in arriving at the table and the waiters were amiable while rushing about with buckets of beer even with so many people ordering food and beverages. The place was packed upon our arrival and still doing quite well when we left around 2 hours later.

I will be limiting some of my previous photo albums to just my network, so those albums which were functioning as photo album/reviews/blog I have just quickly edited the contents and reposted under Reviews which will be accessible to everyone who might be interested in restaurants or other travel - it will not have photos, only some impressions and descriptions of what I may have experienced.
I'm almost always in Multiply so you can find me here as long as there is DSL and some extra time during weekends :-)
I'm glad you are always in Multiply Cat. : )
